Mazda didn't put seat heaters into Aus delivered cars. If they are factory seat heaters the controls would be replacing the cubby hole under the HVAC controls on the console. If the wires are only on the drivers seat then they will be for the seat belt warning light switch. If you have other wires then follow them and see where they go.

NA, NB, or NC? Ti sounds like NB.
I agree with Garry.
NAs have headrest speakers which (can) run wiring up the back of the seat.

It is a 2002 NB8c LE.
Both seats have the wires and actually I was a bomb disposal diver in the Royal Navy.
I checked for ticking and am happy to say the ticking stopped when I poured the liquid nitrogen into the seats!!!!!!!!!!

Nick Suggestion for number plate UXB 060. Do you still have a clock stopper? What a job I bet you have some great stories. :)
